Ryan was probably telling them all of his conference are principled people. Probably Ryan didn’t know about the Koch connection, either.


You mean the same Ryan that is FUNDED by the Koch Bros???? That Ryan???

.....The vice presidential nominee’s campaign finance record is not without some minor controversy. To begin with, he has long been a favorite of the libertarian billionaires Charles and David Koch. Before entering Congress, Ryan worked with a conservative group that would eventually merge with a Koch brothers’ group to become FreedomWorks, a leading sponsor of the Tea Party movement. Their mutual interests in libertarianism could explain why the private energy corporation Koch Industries has given Ryan more than $65,000 over his career.


Geez....give it up.

That’s pathetic. $65K over a career? Would that buy a cup of weekend coffee for him and his staff over the career? Probably most of it as Romney’s VP pick.

Go look up Koch and NeverTrump. This wasn’t about Ryan. It was about backstabbing Trump. Ryan didn’t even have to be there and they would have obstructed.

They hate Trump.
